Anyone else notice the legendary pattern Pokemon DP is having?
Think about it..
Dialga and Palkia have appeared whether full fledged or fore shadowed 49737953 times..
Mesprit, Uxie, and Azelf have been foreshadowed many times as well..
Darkrai has appeared, Giratina, Shaymin, Manaphy..
Now Deoxys, and Phione is coming up real soon too.
Anyway, pretty awesome that Deoxys appeared outside of it's movie.

Actually this is the second time that Deoxys appeared outside of its movie, the first time being in the second Pokemon Ranger hour Special back in Battle Frontier. Though I really gotta say, that was completely random for Deoxys to have shown up at all. I was not expecting for it to even appear.

Also did anyone find it interesting that Pikachu can suddenly breath underwater, then coming up for air only to open its mouth and talk under water again?

Blue likes the Dancing Trpinch so should you.If you approve of Black and White's new anime-only lead Iris, put this in your sig(started by TrainerOfLegend)

Good episode, but a missed opportunity- they could have done another "translation" bit.

Walk a little further off the beaten path
And we’ll drive on even if we get there last
Our backs against the wall and we will lunge and bite
And we’ll rage, rage, rage against the dying of the lightHere And Now by Great Big Sea

I agree with whoever said earlier that this played a lot like a Pikachu short, the lack of translation, and other of the trio's critters were the only things that really separated it tbh.
I'm not entirely sure if I enjoyed it though. Yes, Deoxys appearing and changing its appearance in order to save certain characters was good, but I think that was the only bit.
I tell you what I did find refreshingly different actually - the song played whilst Pika and Poch were diving and destroying the rocks. That once more reinforces the argument of the episode being of similar build to one of the shorts.

Gee, I wonder why people don't like this episode? The animation was impressive, that Corphis talked in a hysterical manner, and Deoxys's appearance was a complete surprise to me. Piplp doesn't bother me, but Notch-Eared Pichu does (unrelated). This is alot like what the mini-movies could be like if they were still theatrical.
And too the big, sarcastic review of the episode: that's rough.

Indeed, the animation was impressive in this episode, and those Corphish looked really good. I had a small hope in my heart that Ash would bring his Corphish back for a little while, shame it didn't happen.

I was expecting this episode to be something about Pikachu and Piplup exploring the island and finding a way to get off to find their trainers, but I didn't expected Deoxys in this episode at all. This just made the episode pretty good.

This episode was nothing but a LOLWUT? filler...was something supposed to happen, or was that just me?

-Narrator flashback! Ken Gates is in ur anime...controlling ur storyline.
-Why exactly did did TR need a disguise? There was no one around, plus, I'm more than sure that Pikachu (maybe not Piplup) can mostly see through the disguises.
-Ok Ash, lets jump into the freezing water after a SUBMARINE. Buizel weighs 65 pounds. Ash weighs at least 100 something. I don't care if Buizel has a jet engine in his butt, he isn't going anywhere fast enough to catch a sub.
-Waaaiiiittt.....This Jenny is a dude. Brock didn't go gaga for her. wut.
-CORPHISH! This one is epic. I love it now.
-Easter Island, anyone? Moaipass still looks creepy.
-The Wingull were fail. Nothing happened.
-Mantyke is adorable and all....but....this ep for them failed as well.
-Deoxys? WTF? Why? What...what could you possibly need Deoxys in a filler like this for. Upcoming Promo? No. Future appearance in a movie? I don't think so. Pokemon, your writers stink.

I really thought the episode was a good filler. Seeing Corphish again made me happy to see the little crustacean and furthermore his voice. The Mantyke were just squealing in awe and secondly I think their Japanese voices were kept. Who is Ken Gates? Thank goodness I only missed 3 or 5 minutes of the episode. Overall, I really like the animation like the underwater and celestial aurora's. I will watch it again hopefully tomorrow to catch those scenes I've missed.

I want to know how Ash held his breath underwater so long as he chased after Team Rocket. And Pikachu opened his mouth under water.

Yeah wouldn't the water enter Pikachu's mouth since he isn't a water Poke? Unless he was saying his name in his mind while opening his mouth with excitement. I wonder how the Mantyke (the three) carried that giant meteorite?

This episode was good. A decent filler, although I liked the whole idea of an entire episode based around the pokemon. It was awesome to see Deoxys again.

This was a really good episode. Pikachu and Piplup on the Island's beach made me think oh Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. :P It was also cool that Deoxys knows Ash and co. are the good guys. Corphish's voice was pretty good, but it reminds me of Ash's Corphish. Also, the music was quite wonderful, so I recoginized that. And now, Chocovine awaits.
